With home energy prices rising, more homeowners are turning to solar energy to reduce energy bills. This video explores a prosumer electrical installation with eFIXX Awards finalist K Cahill Renewables. The most efficient way to use solar PV is for the energy to be used within the home or stored in a battery storage system for when it's needed. This avoids the use of peak-time electricity and low yield solar export tariffs.

This installation comprises a 6kW solar array coupled to a Growatt Hybrid inverter charging a 10kWh battery array.
